Ricky’s Flower Market is a lovely shop in the heart of Union Square in Somerville, Massachusetts. When his door opens April-ish, then you know spring has arrived even if there’s still snow on the ground. When I need a visual respite, I like to wander through his indoor/outdoor space that’s filled with annuals, perennials, herbs, clay pots and everything and anything else needed for gardening. When the sun finally popped out this morning, I decided to make my way over there, and I am glad I did.
